Palest dove grey or ivory floral dress with lilac and apricot floral print, puff sleeves. Below-knee to mid-calf length dress has a gathered skirt and a shaped off centre neckline with pearl frogging front trim. The fabric is sheer but there is a lining beneath, so really only sheer at the hemline and sleeves. The fabric is embroidered over with white in a floral design. Sleeves and back waist are elasticised and narrow ties extend from the side seams. No closure, pulls on. Fabric is nylon. There is no brand, it's a homemade dress - 1960s.
Measurements
Size - Small and petite. Possibly made for a teen, also suits a petite woman. Be sure to check the shoulder to waist measurement, as this is where it's smallest.
- Bust 81 cm (32") - mannequin has bust 87 cm (34") and you can see that this fits width wise but does make the bodice very short.
- Waist 66-76 cm (26-30") (on elastic)
- Hips free
- Shoulders 37 cm (14.5")
- Back 38 cm (15")
- Sleeve 24 cm (9.5")
- Shoulder to waist 37 cm (14.5")
- Length 105cm (41.5")
Condition
Good. The embroidery has unravelled slightly in a couple of places, as shown.
